How much a week does it cost to feed a horse? I'm asking because 1.2 Million quid a year for fuel to feed the 13 Jets compared to 4,000 horses is how much week per horse?
Well, I'm sure that it costs more than £5.77 per week to keep a horse....

£1200000 / 52 = £23076.92
£23076.92 / 4000 = £5.77

(Not allowing for the recycled value of ex-pongo dobbins for dog food)
